We have reached the final prelims session of the 2026 edition of the Pro Swim Series stop in Austin, and it promises to bring plenty more excitement to the competition.
The morning kicks off with the women’s 100 free, which sees 16-year-old Rylee Erisman as the top seed in the event, in with a time of 52.79. The youngster leads a stacked field, as just behind her is Olympic gold medalist Simone Manuel and French superstars Beryl Gastaldello and Marie Wattel. On day two of the competition, Manuel won gold in the 50 free while Gastaldello snagged silver and Wattel took home bronze, so the three of them will certainly be tough competition for Erisman in the 100 free today. Meanwhile, Erisman took 3rd in the 200 free last night, narrowly beating out Manuel in the final.
The men’s 100 free has no shortage of big names in the line up, with the likes of Caeleb Dressel, Jack Alexy, Chris Giuliano, Maxime Grousset and Shaine Casas all set to take to the pool. Alexy is currently the top seed in the event, entered with the only sub-47 time in the field (46.81), but it will be a tough battle to see who makes it into the top eight.
The women’s 200 breast has only 14 swimmers entered today, led by France’s Cyrielle Duhamel with a time of 2:28.38. She is closely followed by LSU’s Grace Palmer, who is seeded 2nd with a 2:28.92. The pair look to be the favorites for the event, as they are the only swimmers entered with times under 2:31.
Leon Marchand is the clear favorite in the men’s 200 breast. He is entered with a 2:05.85, making him the top seed by over four seconds. Behind him, Jack Kelly comes in with a 2:09.90, while Denis Petrashov is seeded 3rd with a 2:10.19.
The women’s 200 fly is another less populated event, with only 14 swimmers on the lineup today. Regan Smith leads the pack, in with a time of 2:03.84 to make her the top seed ahead of Lindsay Looney‘s entry time of 2:07.03. Smith and Looney are the only two in the field entered with times under the 2:10 barrier.
Closing out this morning’s session will be the men’s 200 fly, which boasts Carson Foster in the top spot heading into the race. Foster took 2nd in the 200 IM on night two and 3rd in the 200 free last night.
